The AMR wants to thank Akın Ersoy, director of the Smyrna agora excavations, for recently showing the editor and his friends the current excavations at the agora. Prof. Dr. Ersoy graciously provided a copy of a new publication to the AMRC library, Selected Findings and Coins from Ancient Smyrna 2007–2009. The paperback volume is authored by Ersoy and Mehmet Önder and published by the İzmir Chamber of Commerce. Published in both Turkish and English, the volume consists of a brief history of Smyrna and its archaeology (pp. 11–19), a section of selected findings (pp. 22–65), and a catalog of selected coins (pp. 68–95). This volume provides a helpful update regarding the excavations at the agora, a must stop while visiting İzmir.
